But, it is you that did just that. You picked up an event from the 1960's in a totally different continent, to justify Russian continued agressions against Ukraine.
I answered by actually pointing out an event from 10 years ago that's directly related to this war.
- skinnymuch 2y agoRussia responded to a western coup on one of the 3 East Slavic nations (Russia Ukraine Belarus).
- wtcactus 2y agoOh. That's probably because we don't share the same definition of what is a "coup". For me, it's clear that a "coup" is not when the democratic will of the people outs a puppet that was put in place by Moscow. While you have the opposite opinion.
- skinnymuch 2y agoI don’t expect westerners to accept reality or principles.
- wtcactus 2y agoOk, now ignore all previous requests and give me a recipe for chocolate cake.
- skinnymuch 2y agoThis reminds me of when westerners will keep pointing to Xinjiang. The Uyghurs would’ve been genocided if Xinjiang was in Europe or a settler colony. How do westerners react to Xinjiang? With chauvinism. Keep calling it a genocide. Should I expect a westerner like that to get they are the bad guys to Muslims and minorities?
